Abstract:
To assess the principles of diagnosis and management of Klippel Trenaunay Syndrome (KTS), ascending venography and PPG were used as the means of diagnosis for KTS. 18 cases received nonoperative therapy with elastic bandages or stockings, and 26 patients were operated on, including stripping of varicose vein, decompression of popliteal vein and segmental transplantation with valve to femoral or popliteal vein. The effective rate in the operative group was 73.1% (19/26),whereas the illness of 18 patients was stable with elastic support. Thirty one of 44 patients have been improved during 1～10 year follow up period . It is important that the indications and styles of operation must be carefully considered according to the clinical manifestations and venogram.
